Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, so we're going to go a little further back in time for this throwback to July of 2018, July 29th to be precise, episode 881, Don't Put Your Sombrero on My Keys. And if you're curious, as I am, what that was all about, man, we talk a lot. It's Adam's Phrase, Don't Put Your Sombrero on My Keys. And guess what? Adam's a racist because of that. Enjoy. And guess what? Adam's a racist because of that. Enjoy. Recorded live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board-certified physician and addiction medicine specialist, Dr. Drew Pinsky. You're listening to the Adam and Dr. Drew Show. Yeah, get it on. Got to get on. Got to get on, Got to get on. Thanks for tuning in and thanks for telling a friend.
Starting point is 00:00:46 We love that about you, right, Drew? We do. We also love Birdwell.com, promo code ADS. There works Relief.com. Visit True Car and watch Making It on NBC tomorrow night. I take everything I said about the coffee back, now they add a little more milk to it. Yeah. I first complained about the coffee. You complained. So I stopped wussing out. now they add a little more milk to it. Yeah, I first complained about the coffee.
Starting point is 00:01:05 You complained. Stuff's stopped wussing out. I didn't complain, I had a reaction to it. It was a little different. Emotional reaction to the coffee. I understand, we've all been there, Drew. I just was talking to someone because we were doing some social media
Starting point is 00:01:18 and these guys were doing some memes or something and throwing stuff up on the internet and I have this saying, it's a saying which I've said for many years, which is a sort of metaphor for don't fuck my shit up. Like I have, there's times where I can't find things and I'm like, what happened? And then I think I must have set something somewhere else or done
Starting point is 00:01:46 Something right and it's not somebody just moved it or picked it up or borrowed it or whatever and didn't put it back And now I'm like searching assuming well who else would touch my keys, you know My keys must and then saw there and you know your wife's purse She moved the car and then she put them in it forgot about it moved the thing, you know It's like there's a lot of that. Yeah, and so my saying is don't put your sombrero on my keys. You're racist. That's right. You're racist, dude.
Starting point is 00:02:11 It's true. So somebody put that in a meme and put it out there, and then there's been complaints of being racist. Oh, it's good. Which I enjoy. Yeah. I heard you outside go screaming, that's racist for thinking it's
Starting point is 00:02:25 racist. And I thought, Oh, that must be what you were talking about. It's racist for thinking. Well, to be fair, let's dissect this thing a little bit. That particular hat looks reminds me of Speedy Gonzalez. And that was racist. It does make me racist. Yeah. Although a fast Mexican, I don't know. Mouse. Mexican mouse. The point is this. Someone wants to graft fast onto my culture, especially if we're known for our napping. I'll take some of that.
Starting point is 00:02:58 You want to graft a little dick earth onto my culture or vertical leap or being fast? I'll take it. Okay, I get that. Or a symbol that suggests the same. Yes. See, the comedy is I picked the biggest hat I could find. Yeah. Also, the thing about the sombrero is I don't really think of the sombrero as even Mexican. I think of it as white tourist. I don't actually think Mexicans walk around in sombreros. I think more guys from Florida walk around in sombreros who went to Tijuana.
Starting point is 00:03:32 That's like a go to Tijuana and buy it. It's not a, I live in Tijuana, I wear sombrero. It's I've been to Tijuana, see my sombrero? Yeah, but now let's think about it. Is there some equivalent in some other culture or country well Dylan out there look I hate the Jews as much as the next guy of course you do but putting the yarmulke on the keys doesn't really work you'd see the keys through it you know I mean it's not a big enough
Starting point is 00:03:59 nobody hates Jews more than me but the the Yamaka. I know that. Nobody, literally. Literally. But the Yamaka just doesn't work on the keys as a metaphor. You ever speak of the spelling of Yamaka? Yeah, with an L? It's a Yamulka. Yeah. It's a very strange word.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I don't like it. Same guy figured out how to spell, figured out that cummerbund was not cummerbund, probably was involved with the yarmulke disaster debacle. Though I think there may be multiple ways, Matt, I'm looking at you, maybe multiple ways to spell yarmulke. I feel like there's a couple accepted spellings. That's probably true, except the L1 has been promulgated lately. It's been pushed. Have you noticed that?
Starting point is 00:04:45 Either way, we're talking about taking the meme down, but I said, no, don't take it down. That's suggesting that you are racist or you were caught or you were apologizing for something. Crazy world we're living in now, right? You're just learning that? Well, I normally don't pay too much attention. You know what I was thinking today is that we live in a world where the primary currency ... I don't know if we talked about this the other day, the primary currency is outrage. It's the primary currency.
Starting point is 00:05:16 There was a couple weeks ago, I think we talked about this, they aired some footage of me on a show where I was outraged about something that a police chief was doing around resuscitating drug addicts and I had a very strong opinion about it and I was outraged about something that a police chief was doing around resuscitating drug addicts, and I had a very strong opinion about it, and I was angry, and my opinion is, I know my opinion, I know this guy's being an asshole, I know this is a problem, and I can't believe you guys are letting this go by without making an issue of it.
Starting point is 00:05:36 And when I recorded that, probably 18 months ago, it went by a couple people like, hey, I saw you stand up for drug addicts, thank you for doing that, I've had some tough times. It aired last week. Oh, flood. Oh, you're just fantastic. It's as though that outrage becomes the primary currency of worth.
Starting point is 00:05:59 If you can express enough outrage, you're worthwhile, man. Outrage is a horrible thing. It makes note of something and then just gets in the way of everything else. Well, you can't have conversation when there's outrage going on. Let's kind of work micro to macro for a second here. Macro to micro, micro to macro. Yeah. So, minature to society. If you don't, you know, look, if you want to deal with an issue and you want to go the sort of Jordan Peterson route, it's a lot of years. It's a lot of reading. You know, it's a lot of study. To be able to respond the way he does and have a position
Starting point is 00:06:45 or not or, or, or promote an opinion without a response or, or, or, or what any version of it we'll think about, or you could be one of the Kardashians. Thank you. Quiet. So here's what I'm saying. If you'd like to do that, then you may go get lost in the library for two decades. No fun. Or you could win the argument by being outraged or put off or make accusations against him.
Starting point is 00:07:19 What? Let me just... One's a much easier route. Absolutely, but what's the reward? Why would somebody be wired to be What let me just wait what once a lot easier how you know what I'm saying absolutely But what's the reward what's why would somebody wired to be? Rewarded by that other than that. It's easy. Well if you would like What if I said to you this You are going to get You are going to get into the ring with the heavyweight UFC champ.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Yeah. And he can only tie you. He can never really beat you. Yeah. Because at some point you can be outraged that he threw a punch at you or indignant about it or tell him he's a racist or a hater or something like that. He'll never beat you. He's running in sand right now, dragging a truck tire up and down the beach and, you know, doing chin-ups and, you know, sparring.
Starting point is 00:08:11 You don't have to do a goddamn thing. You're gonna, now you're not gonna win the fight, but he'll never beat you. But you might win a few. But think about it. Just by being out right. I agree with you. And you never have to train. I understand the metaphor. Is this tantalizing? Tantalizing. But how come the audience who's watching said fight will sign with you? Because let's go back to Jordan Peterson. Throughout human history, you just express outrage at Jordan Peterson and the audience goes, hey, shithead, listen to the professor, at least take in what he's got to say and think about it for a while.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Stop with the outrage, just listen. Well, there's a couple things. So the audience is really the duplicitous piece of this. Well, the arena is filled with half his fans and half the other guy's fans, and they're always going to decide who won based on who they're rooting for. Never on who won the fight.
Starting point is 00:08:59 That's a new thing. You used to go in to see a good fight. Right. We just don't do that anymore. And also, when you say Why would this feel good to somebody to be? Soundly beaten in a debate but then to call them a bad person and somehow get your hand raised doesn't feel Right to you, but you have the same reaction when I say I told my nephew to clean out the
Starting point is 00:09:23 Planter in front of the thing and then I left and then he didn't do it. You're like, why wouldn't he do it? It's like because it's who cares because it's it's it's a new world order and you're confused. You're confused because you're like what? But but the boss just walked in front of the building and told you to do this. Why? Why didn't you say he forgot? I'm fearful that my confusion is defense against something else.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Meaning what? Acceptance, I refuse acceptance, so I'm staying in confusion. Because acceptance means capitulation to this, and I cannot abide by it. You and I are wired the exact same way, and that we say, why does it feel good, or not even good, but why does it feel acceptable
Starting point is 00:10:05 to have a debate with somebody over a subject and at some point you just call the person, you know, Hitler's nephew or hater or racist or something like that and then you win through that accusation versus beating them on the subject matter that you're on. That feels completely empty and insane and It feels this you know what it feels like to me It feels to me like and you'll hear about it every once in a while like hey
Starting point is 00:10:34 There's the Boston Marathon and I'm gonna participate in the marathon Except for I hop on the subway and I just go to the finish line and I pour some water on my head So it seems like I'm sweaty and then I just run across with a New World Record. If I got away with it for a thousand years, I would still feel like insane to me. Wasteful. Right, but there's a whole new group that feels like, hey, that's a win.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Oh no. There's a picture of you in the front of the Boston Herald crossing the finish line with a New World record. It reminds me of cultures where people, if you don't lie, you're a doofus. You know, you're a spatsy. It feels like that kind of thinking. Right, like if you don't haggle and you don't lie,
Starting point is 00:11:14 you're a sucker. If you don't lie, you're a sucker, yeah. Yeah, it's weird, right? It's more than weird. I'm back into confusion because I cannot abide. I cannot. Acceptance would be too painful. It's I am terrible. I am oh I am they can't be right or whatever he's got a chance. Oh my
Starting point is 00:11:36 god what is it? Well I think they told me today I have to get another eye procedure too. Why don't you? I mean, look, as a friend, why don't you just kill yourself? And please take that in the spirit in which it's intended. But as a friend, you want to push the medicine. Oh, you want to go to heaven? No, I just want to be dead. Okay. Well, I think many of us share that sentiment around here. Look, as a dear friend, I'm telling you kill yourself, Drew, because you could do it. You can I could do it for you Yeah, I could bring my suicide machine over exactly. Where is Kevorkian these days? He died when you really need him. I know but he must have
Starting point is 00:12:15 Bequeathed this suicide machine to somebody I think at a certain point even got a van going Suicide van there. There's no it's legal. I think. Check on eBay. See if I can buy Kevorkian's van. I'll drive it over. It's semi-legal in California. Let me talk about TheraWorks. Oh it is semi-legal now. The way you would do it of course. Well you go to Seattle I think for. I think they'll kill you in the airport. Hey we got a guy here he's over 40. Put him down. All right. You want to take a call? No, I want to kill myself. Oh yeah. But wait till after. Okay. And I'm going to do the button. And I'm feeling... I need a video of you explaining that this
Starting point is 00:12:55 is something, these are your wishes. Yeah. I don't want to be prosecuted. Oh, don't worry. But I will, I will. I might leave a little present on another video that'll get you in trouble. Just, just for the, just for good sport. All right, you ready? Yeah. Brian, 36, Minneapolis. Hey guys.
Starting point is 00:13:12 What's going on? Hey, not much. Can you hear me okay? I'm on a Bluetooth device. I just want to make sure I'm okay. You're very good. Great. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:13:20 So guys, there's something, Adam, you once said about addiction, which is some people don't have an addiction to one thing, they have an addiction to being altered in whatever state that is. Right, we call those drug addicts. Yeah, although we're starting to call them Americans because I see people walking around with energy drinks all day, every day. A small alter, ration.
Starting point is 00:13:48 You know what I mean? That's on your mind now. I'm going to write it down because you don't get stuff caught in your craw without meaning. It must mean something. Well, no. What I've been... Hold on a second. Now you've reminded me of something Brian. What I'm trying to drill down on is in the past, especially as a young person, you would just leave the house. You would just leave.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Yeah, but in those years. And you'd just be gone all day. But in those years, there were people altering with cigarettes and coffee and alcohol. Understood, but I'm saying the average teenager would just walk out of the house at eight in the morning and I would walk out with no money at all and no hydration and no anything. I'd just leave.
Starting point is 00:14:39 And then at 4.30 or five, I'd just come back and that's when I'd drink my first drink of soda or something. hit a water I used to do something drew I would get on my 10 speed when I was 18 or 19 and I would ride to Santa Monica Or even the County line once No money No granola bar. No, anyway, just leave. Yeah and be gone all day. Yeah, and Now I find myself walking out to my car and I'm like, where's my water?
Starting point is 00:15:09 I got my water? I got one in the car. The car's air conditioned. I don't need the water. You're an old man now though. Well, okay, but what I'm saying is the phone alters you. People checking their tweets, checking their inbox, checking their whatever, sipping off a Red Bull, checking their inbox, checking their whatever, sipping off a Red Bull,
Starting point is 00:15:25 checking the inbox. So you're making a connection between the Red Bull or the energy drink and the phone. I think that's a good connection. I think that's right. I'm, thank you. No, what I'm making, what I'm talking about is you go back 20 years and I would leave the house
Starting point is 00:15:44 and there would be nothing until well lunch is at 1. And we'll eat lunch then. Now something's in my hand. There's a snack. There's a pouch of nuts over there. Go help yourself. Give me one of those. Give me a little more coffee. Hey, where's my water? Where's my mints? Where's my Red Bull? Where's my chewing gum? You know, for some people it's cigarettes and alcohol and whatever, but for the rest of us it's something all the time. That's probably something that we all possess. We're not all alcoholics or addicts, but everybody's married to something. Again, anyone listening, when's the last time you just left the house at eight in the morning and just went like, I'll have my soda or my coffee or my drink at five when I get home. And I'll eat that.
Starting point is 00:16:33 And until then, I'll just walk around, no mints, no gum, no hits off anything or swigs off anything else. This thing, I mean, think about what's at the gas station these days. There's 200 tchotchkes to put in your mouth. You know when we were kids you could get a soda or bag of chips. There was another 400 offerings. It's crazy. Yeah. And I don't think it's a good thing. I agree. Thank you. All right. Brian? Yeah. What's going on? So your question? Not much. No, you kind of hit the nail right on the head Adam. That's kind of what I'm talking about Instead of being addicted to any one specific Substance some people just have that drive where I want to be altered and you're addicted to being altered and you've mentioned
Starting point is 00:17:21 That before Adam Well, I mean if you you really, I agree with me and altered could mean asleep in my world. Like it just, I just, whatever it is, I don't wanna be right where I'm at right now. Yeah, it depends on what you're talking about, Brian. I mean, humans, mammals tend to want to alter. I mean, when you're a kid, you spin around in a chair,
Starting point is 00:17:43 so you're dizzy, so you're all dizzy, right? And as adults, we want stimulation, and we got phones, and we've got energy drinks. But if you have to regulate emotions with doing things and compulsions, that's a different matter. Now, that may, it's, emotional dysregulation is, you know, something where people
Starting point is 00:18:02 constantly need to try to feel better, and if they also have the genetics for addiction, well then they're gonna get addiction, full on, and have emotional dysregulation. All right, there you go, Brian. I would, here's what I would, a challenge to our listeners. Let's see you head out, go for a nice long walk, and don't bring anything with you. There's another side of it is if you say to me, hey, take your dog for a long walk.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Oh, no listening to the podcast or the radio or the book on tape or whatever. I'd be like, I'm not going. Know what I'm saying? Yeah. I would argue that's the one advance. No, look, I'm with you and not all of it is bad, for sure. And hell, if you can learn about Thomas Jefferson while you're on a long walk, then so be it.
Starting point is 00:18:58 But you're still married to that thing. Think about you, Drew, think about me. If somebody said, go take your dog for a long hike and I know Thomas Jefferson. This is going to be you and your thoughts on this one. I'd go, screw it, I'll wait until tomorrow when I can get Thomas Jefferson. Like, I don't think I would just go. I would, see, my thing would be, I wouldn't mind doing that. It sounds great. In fact, I've done it, now I think about it. But I don't like wasting time. You feel like, ugh, what is this? I gotta get this thing done. I gotta listen to this, gotta listen to that. I sounds great. In fact, I've done it. Now I think about it, but I don't like wasting time. If you're like, Oh, what's that? I got to get this thing done. I got to listen
Starting point is 00:19:27 to this. Got to listen to that. I want to hear this. Yeah, I know. But the fact It's a little different. No, it's a little. I get it. You're hero. But listen to me. You have put this in a category of time wasting. Yeah. And it really isn't No, I understand. I understand.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's movement. It's you and your dog. It's scenery, and it's a little bit of therapy. I do do that. Okay. I wouldn't have. I don't know, Drew's shitting on one of my points. No, I'm not shitting on it. Mark the twine. I'm not shitting on it,
Starting point is 00:19:56 I'm agreeing with one of the points. I'm saying, I wouldn't do it. Oh, you wouldn't do it? I wouldn't do it. Oh, oh, oh. I wouldn't do it. I even noticed myself. And you wouldn't do it why? I have gotten used to, and I'm with you, like sort of listening, learning, you know, being entertained,
Starting point is 00:20:18 but having my thoughts provoked and stuff like that. And otherwise, it's just walking around for an hour with not learning anything or yeah business you know I have so what I would do is I would find myself going on these walks in the evening with the dog for like an hour and I would find myself calling Matt DeAndrea and I would find myself telling him, you know, a thousand million pieces of business to discuss, you know. What are you doing in Sicily lately, by the way? Well, that's what I'm getting to. Okay, go ahead. Which is I would walk down the drive and I'd get Matt on the phone and I'd be like,
Starting point is 00:21:04 what cars are going to Monterey? Which cars do they want? Call Bodhi Stroud. Okay, go ahead. Which is, I would walk down the drive and I'd get mad on the phone and I'd be like, what cars are going to Monterey? Which cars do they want? Call Bodie Stroud, ask him how the transport's doing, gotta have it done by, you know, little social stuff in there too, but mainly just a long fat laundry list of like what we're doing, what's coming up, who we need to talk to, blah, blah, blah. Well he went off to a wedding in Italy. And now...
Starting point is 00:21:26 Sicily, right? Yeah. Is that in Italy? Is it Sicily? I don't know. I was watching his... I'm Sicilian. I should know, Drew. And I'm saying... Termino or something. Kind of.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Go ahead, anyway. It's in Italy. It's an island outside of... Kind of is in Italy. The island of kind of. That's where my family's from's from is where I get my kinky hair Sicily's in Italy, right? We watched the entire Godfather series about a weekend ago Fucking they just don't what's gone wrong that we don't have film like that anymore. I don't know stifle yourself Yes, Sicily's in Italy. I told you Mm-hmm now Sicily's in Italy. I told you.
Starting point is 00:22:05 Now, one of the greatest boxers of all time, Italian boxer of all time, Sicily Tyson. Look it up. So, hold on. Where was I? Yeah, now he's in Sicily. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:21 As you say. Yeah. Now I find myself at seven o'clock at night looking at Phil going, I don't want to go walk you because I used to walk you. I'd call Matt and take care of a whole bunch of shit. Now I'm just going to be walking around the block. Oh shit, my phone's going to blow up. See what I'm saying? So it's something to be aware of. And we all have a kind of a weak wiring where we'll slide into that zone pretty easily.
Starting point is 00:22:52 You know what I'm saying? And Phil should get walked and I should walk and that's what we should do. And I actually sort of pushed myself out of the house last night and did it, but there was a couple days where I was like, I'm not going to get anything done. I get it. You got it?

Starting point is 00:24:56 Who do you want to talk to here? It's a box zone injection? Sure. I didn't know they injected that. Yeah, it's a new thing. It's a new thing. Philip, 32, Washington. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:25:09 What's going on? Can you hear me? Yeah. Sorry, it's windy out here. So yeah, I've been on some for, I want to say, probably eight years now. And it's really been a blessing for me. I've been able to advance in life. I'm clean from all other drugs and alcohol, but the plan is possibly get on this new injection. I was told that I think six months into it, after you've been on the injection once a month,
Starting point is 00:25:46 that it sort of, like gradually gets out of your system, unlike the film or the tablets that dissolve under your tongue. Yeah, I mean, good luck. It's still, no matter how you take Suboxone, there's withdrawal when you try to get all the way off. But yeah, I urge you to try to find ways to get off of it yes yes yeah that's my question is if it's if it is do you have any patients on it? No not yet. I've read a lot about it I've not had any direct experience with it I'm a
Starting point is 00:26:21 little suspect of this withdrawal phenomena you're talking about, and I've not witnessed it firsthand, but I know there's been reports of that. I just know that when you're coming off Suboxone, it's miserable no matter what. And so if it's expensive or it's, you know, it's more of a compliance and a convenience thing than anything else. I don't know that I would screw with what you're doing.
Starting point is 00:26:42 I mean, it could really, it could also upset the apple cart a bit. You might wanna just try tapering down from where you are. All right, let's try Jennifer from New Orleans. What's going on, Jennifer? 35. Adam. Garola. Garola, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:26:59 Hey, long time, first time. I'm a little nervous. I lived in Valley Village, flushed the Lukal Lake, flushed North Hollywood for about seven years before I moved out to New Orleans. Valley Village is the fake name that gave parts of North Hollywood when North Hollywood turned into a shit box. Right. The normal immigration is out to New Orleans from Shipbox. And you've been talking a lot about the cancer finishing job. And I was wondering...
Starting point is 00:27:37 Well, not a lot that's come up, yes. Well, and by the way, I'm on a walk listening to your podcast while testing and even taking an energy drink. Yeah. But look, I like the walk and I like to talk. So you voice, if you could say, like, if you can give me a diagnosis of what you think is going on with me. Generalized anxiety disorder. Oh, okay. Yeah. Is that close enough?
Starting point is 00:28:17 Sure. Sure. Well, your voice is the audible version of your posture. It's sort of like how you feel about yourself. Well, and verbal prosody, you know, particularly how women use their voice, evokes emotion in listeners. And so you and I have learned to listen to that emotion
Starting point is 00:28:37 and then read it. Agreed. OK. And do you have any advice on how to calm down? Okay, and do you have any advice on how to calm down? I have GAD with panic. What? This is funny. Yeah, with panic.
Starting point is 00:28:57 Panic was a long time ago. Yeah, a side of panic. Hey, here's my thing. Here's my tale. I, put you on hold. But you can, you can hear me. I believe that the anxiety is almost like clay. It's like you need a certain amount of it to put on that potter's wheel. Oh, sure. But you need a certain amount of it to put on that potter. Oh sure you but but you need a certain amount of input
Starting point is 00:29:26 Yeah, so you have to get up and you have to watch CNN in the morning and you have to go Oh my god, those kids are still trapped in that cave the anxiety to Buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh You're there's a certain amount of coal that you're shoveling into your burner Because you're sitting there and you're like Those kids are in there still trapped that cave. Let me finish Let me refine and then they change the then is that now what guys with the president is done? Yeah, we're gonna be nuked by North Korea. That's what he's done. Right? That's what's eminent So and now you're sitting there the whole
Starting point is 00:30:02 Society is built around you're sitting there the whole society is built around anxiety the whole now it is fucking society is built around scaring chicks and they all sit there and they go oh my god I gotta get more fruit wash and I gotta get some Purell and and and when are those missiles airborne that are coming in from North Korea that's all this turn on the fucking fucking news, it's all there. They're taking those kids, they're putting them in cages at the border, they're throwing them, they're ripping them out of the arms of their moms and tossing them in everywhere. Here's how you know our society is built around anxiety.
Starting point is 00:30:37 If you said, look, the kids are being separated from their parents. If you said a percentage of those children are being removed from their parents, a percentage of those parents aren't their parents, we need to suss that out. Some are criminals. We certainly don't want to reunite them with criminals or folks that could be abusive or harm them anyway. Some didn't show up with parents. Some didn't show up with parents. So what we're doing here is a process of taking these kids, do not worry, they're being fed and clothed. We have medical physicians and we have therapists and we have blankets, clean and sanitary, putting them here. Meanwhile, we're taking the parents, we're trying to vet them. If they put it that way,
Starting point is 00:31:22 then there wouldn't be an emphasis on anxiety. But they say babies are being torn out of the arms of their mothers and thrown in cages. Now you tell me which one is there to provoke anxiety. Okay, that's what you call an agenda. My advice is don't get up in the morning and fill yourself with that. You said that last week. You said that the average person isn't doing that. No, isn't doing what? Isn't paying attention to all this garbage. No, no, no. We're paying less and less attention to it, but it's through osmosis.
Starting point is 00:31:57 If you're going to sit there in front of that TV and hear about kids trapped in a cave and mothers ripped out of arms, you are going to get a certain amount of anxiety like you get radiation from the TV. All right, let me just, what was our caller's name? Jennifer. Jennifer, so there's one, I'll make two points. A, why do you have generalized anxiety disorder? Do you have post-traumatic stress?
Starting point is 00:32:17 Did you have some trauma? Or are you detached from emotions and you have sort of an alexithymia where you can't quite identify feelings and emotions and what you feel is just anxiety around everything or you have just strictly speaking a biological state, a biological problem with anxiety and depression, whatever it is it requires a careful evaluation, talk therapy for sure goes a long way
Starting point is 00:32:37 with this, a long way. What Adam is talking about is adjusting your thinking so cognitive behavioral therapy can be very helpful with this. Emotionally focused therapy can help you hook up with your emotions again and then sometimes medication. Or save a ton of money and just get into NASCAR big time. Because nobody who's big time into NASCAR has any anxiety at all. They're always like, she just gave her a heart check and I got it? Yep. Yep. That's brand new. They have never heard a NASCAR fan a big-time NASCAR fan ever be anxious
Starting point is 00:33:08 Okay, the biggest their biggest anxiety is that Dale Arnhardt jr. Retired this year. That's it NASCAR fans have no anxiety. Okay, so save yourself some money.
